This mechanism reduces the numbers of false alram in cck rate by
dynamically adjusting the value of power threshold and cs_ratio.
We determine the new value by three factors, which are rssi, false alarm
count and igi. Based on these factors, we define the current condition
into five levels. Compared to the previous level, if the level is changed,
we set the new values for power threshold and cs_ratio.

Power amplifiers are not linear components, and require DPK to
reduce its nonlinearity. DPK is called Digital Pre-distortion
Calibration, can be used to compensate the output of power.
DPK tracking is in charge of tracking the thermal changes. And
it then shifts the power curve accordingly, which makes the
power output remains linear even if the PA works in different
temperature.
To perform DPK, the parameter table should also be updated.
And the table will be applied when device is powered on.
Then DPK will reference the values to calibrate.

We're just trusting that these tables are of the right dimensions, when
we could do better by just using the struct directly. Let's expose the
struct txpwr_lmt_cfg_pair instead.
The table changes were made by using some Vim macros, so that should
help prevent any translation mistakes along the way.
Remaining work: get the 'void *data' out of the generic struct
rtw_table; all of these tables really deserve to be their own data
structure, with proper type fields.

Since this macro definition has different values in different chipset,
the current defined macro value is for 8822b. This will cause the
settings of 8822c be incorrect.
Remove RTW_MAX_POWER_INDEX and use max_power_index in struct rtw_chip_info

Collision of writing rf registers could occur if the driver writes
rf registers by direct write while the hardware is writing other rf
registers by pi write simultaneously.
Hardware pi write can be triggered by rf calibrations sometimes, so
the driver can not always write rf registers by direct write
protection. Direct write protection can make sure that there is no
hardware pi write during the direct write.
According to some experiments, if we add direct write protection
when switching channel, the performance of rf calibration will not
be affected.

The new rssi_level should be stored in si, otherwise the rssi_level will
never be updated and get a wrong RA mask, which is calculated by the
rssi level
If a wrong RA mask is chosen, the firmware will pick some *bad rates*.
The most hurtful scene will be in *noisy environment*, such as office or
public area with many APs and users.
The latency would be high and the overall throughput would be only half
or less.
Tested in 2.4G in office area, with this patch the throughput increased
from such as "1x Mbps -> 4x Mbps".

This is a new mac80211 driver for Realtek 802.11ac wireless network chips.
rtw88 now supports RTL8822BE/RTL8822CE now, with basic station mode
functionalities. The firmware for both can be found at linux-firmware.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git
For RTL8822BE: rtw88/rtw8822b_fw.bin
For RTL8822CE: rtw88/rtw8822c_fw.bin
And for now, only PCI buses (RTL8xxxE) are supported. We will add support
for USB and SDIO in the future. The bus interface abstraction can be seen
in this driver such as hci.h. Most of the hardware setting are the same
except for some TRX path or probing setup should be separated.
Supported:
* Basic STA/AP/ADHOC mode, and TDLS (STA is well tested)
Missing feature:
* WOW/PNO
* USB & SDIO bus (such as RTL8xxxU/RTL8xxxS)
* BT coexistence (8822B/8822C are combo ICs)
* Multiple interfaces (for now single STA is better supported)
* Dynamic hardware calibrations (to improve/stabilize performance)
Potential problems:
* static calibration spends too much time, and it is painful for
driver to leave IDLE state. And slows down associate process.
But reload function are under development, will be added soon!
* TRX statictics misleading, as we are not reporting status correctly,
or say, not reporting for "every" packet.
The next patch set should have BT coexistence code since RTL8822B/C are
combo ICs, and the driver for BT can be found after Linux Kernel v4.20.
So it is better to add it first to make WiFi + BT work concurrently.
Although now rtw88 is simple but we are developing more features for it.
Even we want to add support for more chips such as RTL8821C/RTL8814B.
Finally, rtw88 has many authors, listed alphabetically:
